    DIM and CEM Service Campaigns - April 2025

    Dealer implied very recently, but of course provided zero evidence of when. Does anyone know how to lookup what specific software versions are installed/running?

    Android Auto constantly disconnecting - Any fix yet?

    Some good news to report on the infotainment system post software updates received at my annual service. Lotus seems to have addressed the Android Auto random disconnect issues (maybe combined w/Android Auto updates). I've only had a few drives since my dealer updated the software, but the...

    SD card for audio?

    I have the SD card attached to USB2 and it picks right back up without me having to do anything. Dare to dream, Lotus has finally gotten their tech up to 2010 standards!

    SD card for audio?

    Some good news to report on the infotainment system post software updates received at my annual service. Lotus seems to have addressed the issues associated with playing music via an SD card. It now seems to keep the previous index and more importantly you can listen to music right away (it...

    DIM and CEM Service Campaigns - April 2025

    Some good news to report on the infotainment system post updates. It's only been a few short drives so far, but my Android Auto wireless disconnects seem to have gone away. Lotus also seems to have addressed the issues associated with playing music via a locally attached SD card. Previous...

    Any recommendations for a good Android Auto dongle ?

    My Samsung Galaxy S24 was experiencing this exact issue w/my Emira, very frustrating to say the least. I ended up using a relatively standard USB-C to USB-B cable (Anker brand) connected into the armrest storage port........zero disconnects with the tether. I just had my annual service...

    DIM and CEM Service Campaigns - April 2025

    I had asked them if any campaigns were available when I dropped off the car, to which they replied they'd let me know. About an hour later I was texted there were campaigns available and they proceeded to do them (I was good with that). What I wasn't so thrilled about was the utter lack of...

    DIM and CEM Service Campaigns - April 2025

    I have a FE V6 manual. Elsewhere on the paperwork is a reference to 25144 and I took that as their goofy way of putting the date Year/Day/Month since today is April 14th 2025. Applying that logic to 25143, maybe that is when the campaigns were released?

    DIM and CEM Service Campaigns - April 2025

    They unfortunately couldn't have been more vague about everything........ Attached pic of my service recipient w/descriptions of the DIM and CEM updates:

    DIM and CEM Service Campaigns - April 2025

    At my annual service (4/14/25) my dealer performed DIM (Driver Information Module) and CEM (Central Electronics Module) updates. They indicated these were newer campaigns, but of course had zero information regarding what these updates actually addressed. Here's hoping that some of my Android...

    Another battery tender?

    Two, lucky dog I had a difficult time just getting one! I didn't receive my tender when I picked up my car back in June and was told it would come later. Fast forward to October, I went back in person to the dealer after being ghosted via email twice and finally got one. I had to convince the...

    End of the Emira V6 order is now confirmed to be Feb 2025

    Direct link to the @Nova delivery tracker: https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/usa-canada-delivery-thread.2183/page-513#post-124216 Shout out to Nova, still one of my favorite moments of this entire Emira experience was seeing my VIN on his list!

    End of the Emira V6 order is now confirmed to be Feb 2025

    Toyota board room>>>>>Yeah sure, let's keep an engine factory line going just for all of those Lotus V6 sales....LOL In all seriousness who actually knows what their long term plans are now, I certainly don't. The Lotus pivot to all an eclectic Emira replacement is clearly being rethought...

    End of the Emira V6 order is now confirmed to be Feb 2025

    It has been widely reported that Toyota is no longer making this engine. Even if this is the Emira configuration highest in demand, Toyota is simply done and won't make more. In the end the number of V6 Emiras for Lotus to sell is dependent on how many of these engines have been stashed away...
